## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### eBay Product Scraper — Specs, Rating & Price Range ✅ No API Key

Look up an eBay catalog product by its ePID and get the whole product page as one
row: title, brand, model, MPN, UPC and GTIN, star rating and review count, the
lowest and highest price across all listings, how many listings there are, the
full specification sheet, category path, description and images. No API key, no
eBay account and no cookies required.

### ✨ Why this Actor

- **Market price in one lookup.** `lowestPrice`, `highestPrice` and
  `listingCount` summarise every listing of the product.
- **The spec sheet as real columns.** Every line of eBay's spec sheet gets its
  own column (`specRam`, `specStorageCapacity`, `specScreenSize` …), ready for a
  product database or a comparison table without unpacking a nested cell.
- **Identifiers for matching.** Brand, model, MPN, UPC and GTIN-13 when eBay
  has them.
- **Clean images.** Thumbnails are upgraded to full size, duplicates and eBay's
  "no image" placeholder are removed.
- **Billed only for a completed lookup.** A blocked page or an upstream error
  fails the run and costs nothing.

### 🔧 How it works

1. Enter an ePID (the number after `/p/` in an eBay product URL) or the URL.
2. The Actor calls the Neuralverge extraction engine.
3. The product is written as one dataset row.

### Input

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `productId` | ePID or product URL, e.g. `11049276145` or `https://www.ebay.com/p/11049276145` |

```json
{
  "productId": "11049276145"
}
```

### What you'll receive

One row: `epid`, `url`, `title`, `brand`, `model`, `mpn`, `upc`, `gtin13`,
`rating`, `reviewCount`, `lowestPrice`, `highestPrice`, `currency`,
`listingCount`, `category`, `breadcrumbs`, `description`, `image` and `images` —
plus one `spec…` column for every line of the catalog spec sheet (`specBrand`,
`specModel`, `specRam`, `specStorageCapacity` and so on; the set depends on the
product).

Everything arrives in a single Output tab as flat columns: no preview view hides
any field, and no column collapses into a nested cell.

#### Example output (real run, spec sheet shortened)

```json
{
  "epid": "11049276145",
  "url": "https://www.ebay.com/p/11049276145",
  "title": "Apple iPhone 13 - 128 GB - Midnight (Unlocked)",
  "brand": "Apple",
  "model": "Apple iPhone 13",
  "mpn": null,
  "upc": null,
  "gtin13": null,
  "rating": 4.66,
  "reviewCount": 116,
  "lowestPrice": 125,
  "highestPrice": 249.95,
  "currency": "USD",
  "listingCount": 50,
  "category": "Cell Phones & Smartphones",
  "breadcrumbs": [
    "eBay",
    "Electronics",
    "Cell Phones & Accessories",
    "Cell Phones & Smartphones"
  ],
  "description": "The Apple iPhone 13 in Midnight color with 128GB storage capacity is a top-of-the-line smartphone from Apple. This device was recently replaced by Apple and is in new condition. It has 100% battery capacity. See full description",
  "image": "https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/Bk0AAOSwDTJjoWgp/s-l1600.jpg",
  "images": [
    "https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/Bk0AAOSwDTJjoWgp/s-l1600.jpg",
    "https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/OicAAeSwHPVqpFuU/s-l1600.webp",
    "https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/8UkAAeSwBuBqpFuT/s-l1600.webp"
  ],
  "specBrand": "Apple",
  "specModel": "Apple iPhone 13",
  "specRam": "4 GB",
  "specStorageCapacity": "128 GB",
  "specScreenSize": "6.1 in",
  "specReleaseYear": "2021"
}
```

When there is no catalog product with that ePID, the run writes one explicit row
instead:

```json
{ "epid": "99999999999", "url": "https://www.ebay.com/p/99999999999", "found": false, "message": "..." }
```

### Pricing

Pay per result, charged per dataset row. Starting the Actor is free and there is
no minimum charge per run. Each run writes exactly one row.

- The row is billed whether it carries the product or is the single
  `found: false` row that stands for "the lookup ran and found nothing" — the
  work was performed either way.
- A run that **fails** is never charged: missing or invalid input, an upstream
  error, a timeout, and a page that was never retrieved all write nothing.

### Free plan limits

On the Apify Free plan this Actor can be started 5 times per calendar month per
user and returns at most 1 row per run. Every Neuralverge Actor has its own
allowance, and a run that finds nothing counts towards it. Any paid Apify plan
removes both limits.

### Integrations & API

The dataset is available through the Apify API, and the Actor can be called from
Apify Integrations, scheduled, or chained into another Actor like any other. Rows
export to JSON, CSV, Excel and Google Sheets.

### FAQ

**What is an ePID, and how is it different from an item number?**
The ePID identifies a product in eBay's catalog (for example "iPhone 13, 128 GB,
Midnight"), shared by every listing of that product. An item number identifies a
single listing. For listings, use the **eBay Item Scraper** Actor by Neuralverge.

**Where do I find the ePID?**
Open the product page on eBay — the URL looks like `ebay.com/p/11049276145`. You
can paste the whole URL.

**Which fields are often empty?**
`mpn`, `upc` and `gtin13` depend on the product; `rating` and `reviewCount` are
empty for products nobody has reviewed yet.

**Do I need an eBay account or cookies?**
No.

### Disclaimer

This Actor collects publicly available information from eBay pages. It does not
log in, does not use cookies, and does not access personal accounts. You are
responsible for how you use the data, including compliance with applicable laws
and the terms of the source website.

# Actor input Schema

## `productId` (type: `string`):

The eBay catalog product ID (ePID), e.g. "11049276145" — the number after /p/ in a product URL — or the URL itself. This is not a listing number. One product per run.

## `apiKey` (type: `string`):

Only needed if you want to bill the lookups to your own Neuralverge account instead of paying per result here. Leave empty to use this Actor normally.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "productId": "11049276145"
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

The eBay catalog product as one dataset row.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript

});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "productId": "11049276145"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
